Tolkien Creatures are characters created by J.R.R. Tolkien in his fantasy novels, such as The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. The most famous of these creatures are Orcs, Hobbits, and Ents. Orcs are a race of humanoid creatures that are often seen as evil and warlike. Hobbits are small, human-like creatures that live in the Shire and are known for their simple and peaceful lifestyle. Ents are tree-like creatures that are wise and long-lived. All three of these creatures play an important role in Tolkien's works.
